Question

1. If the amount of fruit decreased by 35%, what percent of the original amount do you have?

Answer 1

Answer:

65% of the original amount.

Explanation:

Let's say that the original amount is 100%; therefore, if we subtract 35% from the original amount we have

$100\%-35\%$$=65\%$

Hence, if the amount of fruit decreased by 35%, then we have 65% of the original amount left.
